MileHiCon 58 · Oct 23–25, 2026. Discover the Midnight books.
MileHiCon Attendees: Start Here →There’s a particular kind of quiet that settles in after the lights go out. The house creaks, the shadows stretch, and every small sound seems to mean something. That hour is what the Midnight Anthologies are all about.
You came to the convention for the panels, the costumes, and the hallway conversations that run longer than the schedule allows. But every convention has an after-hours. The crowds thin, the lights dim, and the stories get stranger. We live there.
Six books. Dozens of writers. One hour nobody sleeps through. Slip away from the crowd with a Midnight book under your arm, because your swag bag isn’t full until midnight.
Six Choices. The Stroke of Midnight.
